Goodbye, My Sweet Heart of the Nether. Hello, My Dearest Bladed Soldier.

". . . "Techno, how did the recording go for you?" Dream asks through a disrespectful mouthful of whatever he ordered.

"Your apparent lack of manners is the most shameful thing I've seen." He grunts instead, spoken in Piglin so nobody would understand.

At least that's what he thinks until Sapnap snorts, covers his mouth as he turns away to salvage any respect he has left for the conversation.

"Sapnap why are you laughing, what did he say?" Techno turns to Sapnap who still has not quite yet recovered from his spontaneous fit of laughter. Techno still isn't fully convinced he knows, he thinks Sapnap might be laughing because Piglin speech sounds funny to the common ear.

"He called you disgusting and lacking manners! That's hilarious, I've been insulting you for years like this, too!"

It shocks him to silence, he can't find words in that moment - hearing his first language spoken back to him clear as day is about the most confusing thing Techno has had to deal with in a conversation with someone.

And apparently he's been doing it for years and Techno just never knew?. . ."
